According to the New Straits Times, states controlled by Barisan Nasional (BN) are expected to dissolve their respective state assemblies by today (6th April) or tomorrow, except for Sarawak, which had its state election in 2016.

This news comes after the Registrar of Societies (RoS) imposed a 30-day ban on Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM), of which former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad is chairman, from campaigning.

Despite this, Pakatan Harapan’s Secretary-General, Saifuddin Abdullah, stated that PPBM will still be treated as an active party and will stick to the agreements made between them, so they can still compete in GE14, but under a different party’s logo.

Well, looks like we can expect polling day very soon. Make sure you guys know where you’re voting!
